Comcraft CTS-50 Price??

I am helping a friend dispose of his father's estate of ham gear. We came across a working Comcraft CTS-50 2meter and 220 synthesized transceiver. These were manufactured in the 1970's and sold in the $700 price range. What is a fair price for this radio in today's market? Ed K2ZE Whatever people are willing to pay. Their most famous rig was the 2meter one, from about 1971, with the tuneable receiver and built in VFO for the transmitter, which was both AM and FM at a time when FM was dominating but there likely was still 2M AM in some areas yet the 2M AM tube gear was no longer being produced. The later rig, I don't remember seeing a review for, though I vaguely remember the ads. My impression was that it didn't sell well, but it's so long that I don't know. I sure didn't remember it until your post. It got less attention than their first rig. So maybe there were few sold, in which case the price probably stays high as a collector's item. Of course, it may have been junk, in which case there might be less desire. Michael VE2BVW |
